OTR: Kosher butter

It’s all downhill from here…
Professor C: “you can tell we are in the dog days of the semester because I’m no longer wearing a suit. By the end of the semester I’ll just come in a grubby t-shirt and scream “LEAVE ME ALONE!”
A demand of love
Professor C: “What about specific performance of personal services?”
Student: “You can’t force people do things like that. It’s like forcing a marriage. You can’t force someone to love someone else…”
Professor C: “DIDN’T YOU SEE FIDDLER ON THE ROOF?!”
Professor C: “what if the personal services contract was to be a masseuse? You court can’t say, YOU MUST MASSAGE!”
Why Jack is going to be a corporate lawyer…
(Jill gives an argument)
Professor C: “okay, Jack, argue in the alternative.”
Jack: “I don’t know… I really liked Jill’s argument.”
Professor C: “But you’re an advocate! Argue for your side!”
Jack: “I…well, I just don’t know. I just really liked her argument. My argument is just not strong…”
Professor C: “So you’re going to be a corporate lawyer, and not a litigator.”
When butter isn’t Kosher
Professor C: “In Jewish law we build a fence around the Torah. That’s why we can’t eat chicken and milk. The purpose of that law is so you don’t cook a dead baby in its mother’s milk. But chickens don’t produce milk. We still prohibit it because the value protected is so important that we prefer to have an over inclusive rule than an under-inclusive one.
Student: “Does this include butter?”
Professor C: “WE ARE AN OPPRESSED PEOPLE!… and yes it includes butter…”
Differences in determining Burden of Proof
Professor T: “Do we want to be sure? be very sure? Or be damned sure?”
Oops
Student: “Falling isn’t something that typically happens, well, unless you’re me.”
Professor T: Seven mothers get together and make a big salmonella salad…
